DISCUSSION: On January 28, 2024 Water Field Operations became aware of a sanitary sewer overflow that was discharging into Lake Arlington. Upon further investigation a collapse was discovered on the City's 54-inch sewer main (M-503) south of Rosedale Street which caused up -stream sewer backup, resulting in overflow at the discharge point in the vicinity of the 3000 block of Quail Street. The segment of the pipe crossing Rosedale Street was also discovered to be deteriorated and blocked with debris further exacerbating the situation. Water Department Field Operation crews are not equipped to handle an emergency of this nature. Under the February 1, 2024 Emergency Authorization (copy attached), the Water Department engaged William J Schultz, Inc. dlbla Circle C Construction Company (Circle C) to conduct the necessary work to replace the sewer main. The emergency work was estimated to be $2,000,000.00 (City Secretary Contract No. 60914). The original plan provided for the existing sewer tunnel to be rehabilitated and put back into service. However, it was determined that the tunnel was too severely deteriorated to be rehabilitated and must be abandoned and removed from service. It was therefore necessary to install a new tunnel across from Rosedale Street which necessitates a tunnel liner plate, additional 54-inch sewer pipe, 6-ft diameter manholes and additional by-pass pumping. Under the April 24, 2024 Supplemental Memorandum (copy attached) to the February 1, 2024 Emergency Authorization, the City authorized additional construction costs in the amount of $2,982,215.21 for the additional work to be performed on the emergency City Secretary Contract (CSC No. 60914-CO1). The contract and work will be billed on a task order basis. Mayor & Council Communication(s) (M&C) will be circulated to ratify the above contract after the work has been performed. With the supplement, the revised contract amount is $4,982,215.21. Section 252.022 of the Local Government Code exempts from normal bidding requirements that are necessary to preserve or protect public health or safety of the municipality's residents and procurements that are necessary because of unforeseen damage to public machinery, equipment or property. The purpose of this M&C is to secure funding to compensate Circle C for work performed and to speed up the pipe replacement project. This is the practice of the Water Department to appropriate its CIP plan throughout the Fiscal Year, instead of within the annual budget ordinance, as projects commence, additional funding needs are identified, and to comply with bond covenants. The actions of this M&C will appropriate funds in support of the Water's portion of the City of Fort Worth's Fiscal Years 2024-2028 Capital Improvement Program, as follows: 60EMERSSM503REPAI-CIRCLE C Capital Fund Name Project Name FY2024 C1P Appropriations Authority Budget Change (Increase[Decrease) Revised FY2024 Budget W&S Capital 105408-Emer Projects- SSM503 Rep $0.00 This M&C $4,982,216.00 $4,982,216.00 Fund S.Rosed Ratif 56002 Funding is currently available in the Unspecified -All Funds projectwithin the Water & Sewer Capital Projects Fund forthe purpose of funding the Emer SSM503 Rep S.
